best weight reduction usually lies beween the drivers seat and steering wheel. In most cases with some work a 10-50lb reduction in total weight is possible!!

Well its possible that they think you can find the info yourself?

The differences in weight between the two motors would be had on the blocks themselves. The 2jz has a tailler deck height... by whatever the difference is in the stroke 86mm/71.5mm vs 86mm/86mm... so 14.5mm

I'd guess around 15-20lbs

But... its not like they are interchangeable blocks... you cant take a 2jz crank and put it on a 1jz bottom-end/block and expect it to work (pistons and rods are the same between motors)

So the point of this question for anything other than purely information purposes, is completely non-existant.
